Good. So why then were you dissatisfied with the test_noninteractive result which should have shown no differences between Fortran and Tcl results and corresponding C results? Did you forget to test master tip (which includes my tiny change to force the Fortran and Tcl versions of example 8 to produce Sombrero results rather than Rosenbrock)? If the test_noninteractive target result for master tip is now good for Fortran and Tcl, then time to move on to the test_noninteractive target for MinGW/MSYS (not MinGW alone) and the further expansions of these tests I discussed. It would be a wonderful result if you could show that both Cygwin and MinGW/MSYS produced good comprehensive test results now. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
